I have to say that this is BY FAR the strangest, and most captivating thread I have ever read on a forum! I have mixed feelings about alternatives to using toilet paper. That being said however, I know that the icky feeling I get when I think about using the alternatives is only because I have been conditioned by my culture to believe that using anything other than toilet paper is unsanitary and deplorable.
Since I have sewn my own pads for my time of the month however, I think I could be well on my way to going toilet paper-less. My husband would probably see this as a confirmation of insanity though! lol I sure am glad "I do until you stop using toilet paper" wasn't part of our vows!
